Dan Berridge, you are a genius! I absolutely loved the music soundtrack. I also liked the fresh idea of an armed leg as weapon. I wondered why his kick is so lethal. That is a really fresh idea. How often do we get fresh ideas on RUclips short movies now? Almost never, this is precious. To balance the narrow-minded comments below, the absence of language in it is a fresh and impressive depiction of what humans will become at Point Zero☑☑ I really hope that self-medication does not die with the apocalypse. Basic knowledge about wounds and sanitation would've helped that couple. They do have fire, so why no boiled water for the location of the injection and for treating his wound? The man touching his own wound with germ-infested hands at the end made me cringe. It could be normal for mankind, but I really really hope it is not. Surely we all know better? Knowledge of herbs may be dying out, but basic sanitation and boiled water should never. On the bright side, dirtiest hands, best wound I've seen. Make-up artists here deserve an award too. Hollywood could learn from you.🏆 Finally, I wish I had such abilities to film my RUclips-story Apophis Apocalypse, instead of just doing audiobooks. This film is very convincing.
To balance the narrow-minded comments below, the absence of language is a fresh and impressive depiction of what humans will become at Point Zero☑☑ Who made that decision, was it Arthur Cauras? You deserve an award for even just that. It is a top notch liturgical idea, stroke of genius.
Yeah, I mean there's this small detail of someone being able to ninja even after being stabbed in the stomach. But you're right..... Having unfortunately been in a similar situation many years ago, this is more or less how it went. It's a rather disconcerting experience.
Yup, - that's closer to the reality I'd imagine,- filthy, infectious, squalor, with everyone brutally scratching and clawing for the last few crumbs.So chaotic that any possibility of a reset would only come when the population was whittled down to a few scattered survivors, too far apart to try to steal from and kill each other.It's a true cliche that civility is a thin veneer, easily worn through.Props all around,- well acted, written , choreographed, and shot. EF Hollywood.
Fuck me, that was a viciously brilliant fight scene with energy and desperation. Excellently done. Instead of the formulaic mad Max style weapon, that blunt force shin hammer was an excellently understated and realistic touch(in context of course). I'd love to see some more of your stuff.
Body acting by the protagonist is superlative. As a sometime cinema and theater fight coach I can say he's talented in and makes the most of this aspect. It's worth it just to watch him work.
Aaaaaaah grblaaahaaaah.....aaaaahhhghgh ! which means I liked it. Great atmo and locations. The fight scenes were good. Showed some desperation rather than "everyone knows kung fu/karate/mma". A film that kept me engaged for 17+ minutes without uttering a single word.
Very nicely done! The human emotions he achieved were incredible. I loved how that one guy just wouldn’t go down. So many big films these days are so dummied up for simple minds. In this film it wasn’t fight=win....rather he had to really earn his win. The vomiting due to the increased adrenaline, the scene at the end where it looked like he was about to cry - all very realistic human reactions!! Also there was just enough information. This film didn’t leave you with more unanswered questions than action. Thank you!
Excellent job of picking film locations.Very realistic,great acting and just overall a fantastic job!The one long fight scene had to be the most spot on to what fights are usually like in real life.I was a bit disappointed when he was running away being chased by a good sized man.He turned and with a sweep kick put him down rolling on the ground.Then wala,trying not to give too much info,the end when he sat down I said damn that's how he did it.Fantastic!Now I am going to watch it again.
I was more impressed with how he got over being stabbed for long enough to kick everybody's ass and get so far away just by stumbling for a few seconds that he didn't need to go any further and could go back to being stabbed again. I've tried telling myself that these are just short little teasers and I don't know the plot but, more and more, it seems like getting stabbed, stumbling around, fighting MUST BE the plot because that's all we ever see. Can you get PAID to film this kinda thing?
All things cinema here are: AMAZING! I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. What has always eluded me most about film making is the ability to convey 'story' with images and very little dialogue. Your incredible work, here, has NO dialogue, and yet the action and imagery, shot so majestically, tells a multi-leveled story. POINT ZERO is a MASTERPIECE!
Amazing locations. The hero is a really good actor and has a great look. The emotion between him and his wife/girlfriend was very realistic. Nicely done.
This was great! Just sort of appeared in my selections. Exciting, good acting, realistic backdrop, the video filtering gave it an air of other-worldly surrealism. I wish I could have seen more.
Ran across this in Dec 2019. Just thought you should know folks are still enjoying and sharing it. It has held up really well. I personally enjoyed the detail of his bladed grieve we saw at the end.
This has to by far be the best PA short film out there! The story, make-up, feels, acting, cgi, location & atmosphere are just stellar! THIS is how it should be! Perfect, just perfect! Good luck for the future, you'll go far!
Nice work all around. One thing I noticed right away -- this guy is used to his environment (regular problem in otherwhen settings is characters who act like it's all new to them). Good body language from the actor. Hopefully someday we'll see more of this. And something I found curious -- the zombies seem to react only to each other's calls, not to miscellaneous noises (such as from the fight, hardly silent). It's like they're disconnected from every reality but their own.
You have to stick around for the last line.....SHOT IN SOISSONS FRANCE IN JUNE 2009, USING THE RED ONE CAMERA so yeah it has CGI in it. A damn fine effort. First thing i thought was "damn, this looks real" during the fight scenes. Outstanding job kids. Top shelf. Best of luck to you.
I have watched hundreds of these short films but this one was the best I have ever seen! This is the type that makes the viewers hope for a continuation or a Part 2. The main character is a better actor than most famous actors in the multi-million dollar movies. This had better and more realistic fight scenes as well. Awesome writing, directing and acting. I absolutely loved it and I hope to see more in the future. The only thing I was curious about though was the medicine or serum he risked his life for to give to the pregnant lady. I'm curious to know if it was some type of medicine for her or the baby, or a vaccination to prevent them from turning like the others did.
The juxtaposition of violent post apocalyptic survival tactics with family bonds and pure love was a perfect balance. He knew he would die of infection soon. I was all “find a bee hive and slap some honey on that Sir!” Nature’s antibiotic. Fabulous. 👍🏻☺️💛
Congratulations, I loved it! Incredible actors, great direction and photography. The fight scene was very well done, very touching and realistic. You guys ar awesome!
wow.. this was such an amazingly wonderful experience to watch, congratulations to the entire production team, I truly hope you get to turn this into a full length feature some time, I would gladly pay double the ticket price to see a full length movie based on this..
Very good. To answer any criticism I personally see it as he had one job. Single focus. He got the medicine or serum the pregnant lady needed. Delivered and administered it. Very well done. They allude to the fact the guys he stole from were bad as they were beating up that one guy but you don't know. It's up to our interpretation.
Phenomenal short, the creators know their craft and the main actor was superb, I’m 55 yrs old, 6’5” 270 pounds and mean, but I was crying at the end. Keep it up guys, would love to see more!!
This was honestly incredible!! The soundtracks fitted great to the story, great acting and the suspense was great. The shots were just amazing. I applaud you, this is the best i've seen in a while.
That feeling of uncertainty of what would happen when he was sneaking around, whether he would be caught, if they heard the guy screaming, if he would get out. I thought it was very well done.
This must have been filmed in Paris after the riots. :P But, seriously, excellent makeup and all around production values. One of the best "doomsday shorts" I've seen.
Excellent !!! Le combat est super bien, réaliste nerveux excellent, c'est typiquement comme ça que doivent être les combats je mets un gros pouce bien vert
I was wondering why the guy went down after being kicked in the shin...then at the end he reveals a steel shin guard with a sharp edge on it. Nice weapon
Spectacular and moving. And the physical and facial acting (without saying any words) was awesome! The fight scene was raw and more believable than films with big budgets!
Thanks for explaining why they went down so fast with just a kick to the shins. I was beginning to think their bark was way bigger than their bite. 👍🏻 Ouchie. 🥴
Woooouuhh I real like this short film. I like the colour,motion and imotion. location signed so great. it's deserve to go far from here. Yeees soo great. am from Tanzania East Africa. really appreciate this team work.
OMG frist I thought if this got an award for the most brutal outrcy of uncontrolled shocking violence nothing for the light fainted, but at the end I understood it must have gotten it for a lesion on how much a loving man can take for all those living in the internet hemisphere of peace since ... #weaintnojesus
The absolute BEST short film that i have watched to date. The fight scene was probably The most realistic that you will most likely encounter in real life. Would give this (4) stars any day . Gave up on Netflix some time ago due to their bullshit politics , may have to say good bye to Amazon as well. Again, Very well done. G.S.
Very good! Is a sequel coming? PS sorry for a stupid question but what was the medicin he gave to he's girlfriend? I was very moved by the intense moment between them when he came back to her and just hope that they will be allright. As I said: I want a sequel 😍
Excellent work! I don’t know who blocked ur fights but spot-on...looked so real. And the scenery and location and the filters u used...excellent! And oh yeah, gr8 work on the sound and Foley work...this should be a full feature!
Excellent movie. The fighting was so realistic, not like what you see in movies on the big screen. The emotions were so honest and pure. This was extremely well thought out and preformed.
So few views? (24k as of 1/21/18) I won't go all bombast or hyperbole, but this was very good indeed. The acting by the main character was excellent. Choreography of fights quite realistic. To all involved... Kudos.

Fight scene was more realistic than some (many) I've seen in 70 million dollar budgets. Nice work......
I don't know how anybody could judge this as realistic we don't know yet

'Edge of my seat, leaning in good movie!' Looking forward to more of your work!
Oh my, I cant believe im watching an amateur film, this is an amazing one. I liked the good acting of the cast especially the lead actor. Thumbs up!!

One of if not THE best fight scene when the crazy found him looking for medicine. Excellent work on this.
Fuck me, that was a viciously brilliant fight scene with energy and desperation. Excellently done. Instead of the formulaic mad Max style weapon, that blunt force shin hammer was an excellently understated and realistic touch(in context of course). I'd love to see some more of your stuff.
I didn't feel this is a short movie, so many things they covered in just a short notice. Such a great work...much appreciated
Very, very nice! I'm definitely looking up more of your videos to watch when I get off of work.
Body acting by the protagonist is superlative. As a sometime cinema and theater fight coach I can say he's talented in and makes the most of this aspect. It's worth it just to watch him work.
Excelente!! congratulations!! y gracias. Ojalá hagas más trabajos como estos.
What a pity that more people haven't watched this work of art! Amazing, gritty and realistic...bravo man!
Found this randomly. I cannot believe this has only 1,258 views. Compelling, thrilling, action-packed and downright brilliant.
This was WELL done. Character development was spot on. Dirt , grime quotient spot on. The welcome home sequence acting was beautiful. Thank you
Very well done, Arthur. You have every right to be proud of your work.
Gripping from the moment one to the end, for what you had to work with this was excellent pacing and performances.
Aaaaaaah grblaaahaaaah.....aaaaahhhghgh ! which means I liked it. Great atmo and locations. The fight scenes were good. Showed some desperation rather than "everyone knows kung fu/karate/mma". A film that kept me engaged for 17+ minutes without uttering a single word.
VERY WELL DONE GREAT FIGHT SCENES VERY REALISTIC I ENJOYED IT KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK
Please give this director a guest director's slot on "The Walking Dead."
He should even be on Fear of the Walking dead also.
Great vid!
Thanks much for your efforts in making it available to enjoy.. d:^)
Awesome work! The fighting scenes and choreos (?) were authentic and way better than the most i`ve seen in the big movies. great physical acting!
Incredible!!! Great storytelling.
Proof that big effects budgets are no match for well-crafted storytelling.
Very nicely done! The human emotions he achieved were incredible. I loved how that one guy just wouldn’t go down. So many big films these days are so dummied up for simple minds. In this film it wasn’t fight=win....rather he had to really earn his win.

Most realistic life or death depiction I've ever seen ! Had me all tensed up and feeling the pain! Great film!

LOL...what were you watching?? Those fight scenes were a joke....SMH

What? When? Where? How? Why? Well made. Good acting. All feels. It left me feeling that this man, woman and child stand no chance at all.

I really liked that too, no bullshit dialogue👍

@ in the credits
This pulled me in and wouldn’t let go. It was visceral and had a feeling of authenticity from the first frame to the last. Extremely well done!
Beautiful filming , acting . Scary good job
Good fucking job. This is really good. Like better than most movies I’ve seen recently.
Well done. The fight scene is Oscar worthy.

Shannon King exactly we need a part 2
Forget zombies. This awesome movie shows human beings are far more frightening!
Ohhh wow! Absolutly marvelous...and the music is great.
Applauses
The juxtaposition of violent post apocalyptic survival tactics with family bonds and pure love was a perfect balance. He knew he would die of infection soon. I was all “find a bee hive and slap some honey on that Sir!” Nature’s antibiotic.
Fabulous. 👍🏻☺️💛
Excellent work, with no dialogue! Bravo!
Holy shit, those shin guards were awesome. Definitely making some!
Congratulations, I loved it! Incredible actors, great direction and photography. The fight scene was very well done, very touching and realistic. You guys ar awesome!
Loved it. Part 2 please
This truly shows that a big budget means crap without creativity.Excellent work!👍
Very good, and I'm glad to see you can still get a decent haircut in this apocalyptic world
:)
Well done, all involved! Enjoyed this production.
wow.. this was such an amazingly wonderful experience to watch, congratulations to the entire production team, I truly hope you get to turn this into a full length feature some time, I would gladly pay double the ticket price to see a full length movie based on this..
I thought it was very good and so does my fiancé. Great Work.Hope to see a second one.
Very good. To answer any criticism I personally see it as he had one job. Single focus. He got the medicine or serum the pregnant lady needed. Delivered and administered it. Very well done.

I didn't see a short video,I saw SUPER REALISTIC REPRESENTATION of EARTHLINGS in NEAR FUTURE.
Awesome 👍👍👍😍😍
That hit you right in the gut. No cheesy dialog required.
Phenomenal short, the creators know their craft and the main actor was superb, I’m 55 yrs old, 6’5” 270 pounds and mean, but I was crying at the end. Keep it up guys, would love to see more!!
magnifque, realiste comme j'aime, respect.
if anyone has other films like that, i'd like to discover
This was honestly incredible!! The soundtracks fitted great to the story, great acting and the suspense was great. The shots were just amazing. I applaud you, this is the best i've seen in a while.
runasto, what's the suspense?
That feeling of uncertainty of what would happen when he was sneaking around, whether he would be caught, if they heard the guy screaming, if he would get out. I thought it was very well done.
I have never thought that was a suspense!
Superb - one of the best post apocalyptic dramas since the Road
Totally gritty, down and dirty, picture of survival in a ruined world
Excellent job, great story and Alaa Safi, very good actor
Where can I buy this? This is an awesome film! Top notch quality all around!
Impressive all the way around. Nice work.
This must have been filmed in Paris after the riots. :P
But, seriously, excellent makeup and all around production values. One of the best "doomsday shorts" I've seen.
Shorter and outnumbered. But turned into a SAVAGE to protect his family.
Very impressive!
Fight scenes we're pretty accurate actually..dude socked that chick then stomped on her face lol
Excellent Work to everyone who made this :)
For some reason I can't get Adam Sandler out of my mind as I watch this
Well done! I can absolutely see why this is award winning! One of the best I've seen yet! Keep it up!
Excellent !!! Le combat est super bien, réaliste nerveux excellent, c'est typiquement comme ça que doivent être les combats je mets un gros pouce bien vert
Content que ça t'ai plu, @General Lee, merci pour le soutien !

Félicitations Arthur. Finalement je l'ai vu sur youtube avant le DVD.

Woah this is awesome and i love the ending. Postapocaliptic indeed.
Wow! Emotional ride on this; great work!
Awesome
I was wondering why the guy went down after being kicked in the shin...then at the end he reveals a steel shin guard with a sharp edge on it. Nice weapon
Savate😀
Nice job!!! And not a single spoken word... amazing 😎👌
This was one of the better ones. The fight scenes felt raw and believable. It has a lot of potential.
Wonderful acting. I just want more!
Spectacular and moving. And the physical and facial acting (without saying any words) was awesome! The fight scene was raw and more believable than films with big budgets!
Very good short! Lead actor excellent! Need sequel. Did anyone notice the duck on the pond in the very last seconds?
Thanks for explaining why they went down so fast with just a kick to the shins. I was beginning to think their bark was way bigger than their bite. 👍🏻
Ouchie. 🥴
Very convincing fight scenes
Very great film,

Has a great gritty feel like 28 Days Later. More realistic that Hollywood glam horror. I like it.
Excellent movie. The fighting was so realistic, not like what you see in movies on the big screen.
The emotions were so honest and pure.
This was extremely well thought out and preformed.
Totally brutal. Made Hollywood look soft and fluffy. Truely great work.

I knew he wasn't stealing for him self, i lit my heart he helped a women in need
Bravo! to the lead actor! It's an actor's material! Very good!
